Would a really cheap jigsaw, like this one; https://www.toolstation.com/shop/p63070 be ok to start with?
MDF is not recommend at all, even for wood, good for prototyping but breaks really easily and HDPE is cheap (i get it from Direct Plastics and i think that is where most people get it from) and is the go to material for first bots
